Abstract

En 中文

Preceptorship is a key component of medical student clinical experience. Demand for clinical preceptors is increasing. An updated understanding of why preceptors continue or discontinue these roles, particularly in pre-clerkship settings, is needed to optimize recruitment and retention. To inform recruitment and retention of pre-clerkship preceptors at a large public medical school, the authors examined preceptor motivations for precepting, reasons for leaving, and factors influencing a successful preceptorship.
